And smoke. Fkn smoke everywhere... Fkn centurions and atlases...

 

Centurions are the least dangerous compared to Marauders or Captains. Those just look at you and you're dead.

It's hard for me to compare the bs from one Phantom to the whole Geth faction.  The amount of Geth BS correlates pretty strongly with how many double and triple rockets you get in a game from single GRTs.  If you aren't getting 2 rocket troopers consistently ripple-firing at you, then it isn't so bad.

 

What is ridiculous though are waves with 3 or 4 Phantoms when they go into hand Thanix mode.  Then you are getting absurd hitscan DPS directed your way.  And it is like 99% of the wave's DPS from 3 or 4 of the characters.

Dangerous, may be. 

 

But centurions are way more annoying with their smoke grenades. Blinding you while the enemies maintain perfect aim, while the player doesn't have any chance of countering that effect is plain dumb. Seeker plagues are less annoying than that sh*t.

^ uhh Geth Scanner? Hunter Mode?

You're trying too hard, seriously. I will admit there's a lot of bullshit Cerberus routinely engages in, but compared to everything geth throw at you, all the BS marauders pull off and the crap the collectors give you... no way I can compare some smoke to that.

 

Then again, I genuinely enjoy fighting Cerberus, so I may be a little biased.

Or just spam some grenades. That always solves everything. And if it doesn't, at least it makes you feel warm inside

Too slow and not that great at range.

Dissing the Scorpion. Unfriended, blocked, reported!

What if I dissed on the Venom?  

[Marksmad is waving goodbye]

What if I dissed on the Venom?  

 

Then you'd be unfriended, blocked and reported by half of BSN. And rightly so!

Hmmm. And how would that differ from now? 

[frank_is_crank]

I would have to second this. But my skills with that gun are ... limited ... no ... not existent.

Do not forget that magic grenade that is always waiting for you around the corner...

[LemurFromTheId]

Venom is crap.

[Angry_Elcor]

Why aim when you can run away? I find that she tends to stand still long enough for me to shoot her when she's busy stabbing one of my teammates.

[TheNightSlasher]

Venom is love, venom is life. 

 

The true high lord.

[Selthae]

You're a ****** weirdo.

 

I can agree with that

Scorpion is indeed an answer for phantoms. Better than even Venom. Stagger all day without charge. It also is not that inaccurate.

This....whenever i take out my destroyer, he's equipped with a typhoon and scorpion to deal with those annoying phantoms...they can't hit or stab you if you're staggering the s**t outta them and the great thing about that is you don't even have to launch a direct hit on them for them to take damage.

[TheBunz]

It's not worth the effort. Most of the time happens when laying some hey firepower on her. Try with these guns and you can get to happen multiple times in a match:
Harrier, piranha, wraith/claymore
Easiest phantom killer if just having problems with them is the Geth plasma shotgun with warp ammo. Staggers and melts

[Mgamerz]

Or use the Chakram Launcher. It's amazing against them.

Cerberus has a lot of firepower out in the open.  Very obvious when soloing.  However, given a little leeway they are trivial.  It is mainly the Atlases sniping across the map which suppress free action

 

The real phantom killer is the Acolyte Krosol.  And on Platinum there are lots of Phantoms

 

On Platinum, properly built and with Fortification refreshed in the last 20 seconds:

Acolyte + heavy melee + Carnage = dead Phantom in a second.  Some builds when Raged are done at melee. 

 

Fort buffed heavy melee + carnage need to do >= about 2350 damage to kill everything unshielded including Marauders in one pass.  Marauders have more health compared to other mooks.  Carnage seems to have a bit of unlisted damage; that and presumably the Acolyte bleedthrough makes 2350 a sufficient threshold 

 

Properly built, Carnage cooldown will be quick, which means can chain melee groups of Phantoms.

 

I'll just quote myself:

With judicious maneuvering one can wade through a sea of phantoms killing every one in one pass.  If phantoms can be disposed of this way then of course all lesser mooks suffer the same fate.

 

Reverse the order for regular mooks i.e. Acolyte -> Carnage -> Fort refreshed heavy melee in order to better trigger Rage.  When spec'ing keep 4k acolyte barrier damage in order to one shot Platinum phantom barriers for maximum freedom, aggression and efficiency

 

Turrets explode instantly with acolyte + grenade FE

 

Personally I love fighting Cerberus

[Clips7]

I don't mind fighting Cerb either, but it can go downhill fast in a heartbeat...priority needs to be taken on engineers and phantoms. I was in a game where the engineers set up turrets everywhere, everytime you turned a corner, that a$$ was getting lit up. Most games aren't like this, it's just that during this particular game, the phantoms and Dragoons did a good job of keeping us at bay while we was trying to take out those engineers.

 

All said and done, weapon output and kits do make a difference, my point is that you just have to make sure you get a handle on those engineers as soon as you spot them. I've been in revive parties where turrets was ripping us to shreds....kill engineers ASAP!...

You literally never post anything else, do you?

Today. Pugging on Tuchanka. My DAI was in the corner near the LZ, Dragoon ran in, I spent a few seconds fighting him off and taking him down. And then was taken down myself by the Turret set up by the Engineer that had spawned no more than 2 metres behind me!

 

Death's too good for them!
